General Site Rules
-No graphic, anti-semestic, racist, rude or sexual content is allowed on this website. This means no jokes about Jews, blacks, or any other sort of anti-religion/skin colour. I'm German, and if any Jews have a problem with that then be my guest and have your account deleted, thank you very much.
-Stealing the work of others and claiming it as your own is unnacceptable also. The consiquences are a warning the first time, stripping of your powers if you have any) and then a ban.
-Keep swearing, cussing, or whatever you like to call profanities to a minimum. Obviously, there are younger members on this site, so try not to use them, even though they are accepted. Also keep in mind that cursing at any member on this site will result in a warning and/or ban.
-Spamming and double-posting annoys everyone, especially me. Spamming can range from taking a thread about sports and then posting, 'Anyone see the new Grey's Anatomy episode?', or posting innapropriate images or stupid ones in your own thread or in others. Spammers are banned by IP address, e-mail, and username. Double-posting is self explanatory.
-Be polite and respectful. Not just to the staff, but to our members too. I try to make everyone feel welcomed, but I need your help for that. Also, please refrain from flaming anyone in public for no reason or a stupid reason. Actually, we would prefer it if you didn't bash at all. If you have issues with another member contact me or one of the other admins for help so that you can bash/flame them in a password protected board. Like I said, we'd prefer if you didn't do it at all.
Role-Playing Rules
-Most of the rules apply in Role-Playing as they do in Out Of Character posts.
-(IC Posts only) There is a NO ONE LINERS post rule. Please make sure that all of your sentaces make sense, and you're not just fitting them in to make sure that you don't break this rule! We also have a word count box if you need it.
-Auto-hitting, god-modeling, and power-playing are not acceptable. Auto-hitting is automatically hitting your opponent in battle. God modeling is becoming invincible, or being unable to be hurt. Your character has to get hurt sometime in life! Power-playing is using another members character without their permission. All three will result in a warning, a second warning (and/or stripping of any powers that you may posess), then a week long ban without warning.
-No graphic sex or birth. There are young people on this website, members! Keep it to a simple 'mysterious' walkabout or just say that she gave birth to a healthy girl, blah blah blah...
-Murdering another member's character without permission results in an immediate ban without warning. Otherwise the site goes into ruins because that member has bashed/flamed the murderer publicly. Not very pleasant.
-Make sure that your characters personality is adjustable to the situation and the ranking. A Beginner rider is more likely to question what an Experienced rider or Advanced rider says because he or she hasn't learned a ton yet, than an Intermediate/Experienced/Advanced unless he or she is looking for trouble.
-Please make sure that your one character isn't riding on a trail, helping his.her girl/boyfriend with their Spanish homework, and playing football with some friends all at once. It just isn't realistic and makes no sense whatsoever.
Advertisement/Introduction Rules
-You may only advertise in the Advertisement boards, the URL area in the c-box, the 'Website' area in the 'Modify Profile', or in your signature.
-Make sure that, in making of your introduction (or anywhere on this board, really) you do not give your real name, address, and/or phone number or any personal information. If you are Lily Adams, from Houstan, Texas, and your number is 555 (?) 223 5832 then we DO NOT WANT TO KNOW! But there are molesters out there who do, so keep that in mind...
-Advertise websites that are PG-PG13 because if you advertise a website like Porn It! then we'll delete your advertisement. So, please don't do stupid things like that.
-You may advertise websites that do not have to do with human/horse rpg.
-We do not have a code like some websites, so there you are.
-There really aren't any more rules, but I just feel like typing. And making things bold. ;D
Punishments
Breaking any of the rules above will result in a warning of fifty percent. Break that certain rule again, and you will be given a talking to, or banned, depending on the seriousness of the incident.
If you are accused but feel that you were wrongly accused of, then please PM me or e-mail me, if you have already been banned. Some people have a tendancy to overreact, so just please be calm and don't have a panic attack.
Make a Character
You have the option of creating a horse or a pet, or even both. Yes, pets are allowed here in NMS. So, if you wish to bring you puppy Peppy along, please do so. It makes role-playing with that person much more interesting.
Your character does not HAVE to have a horse. We do have lesson horses, you know! And if you want to be unique, make a male character, or a snake as a pet, and don't have a horse- use a lesson horse. Of course, that's just a suggestion, but I'd appreciate it!
